It's another Spaceballs reference. Like ludicrous speed and the model s ludicrous mode.

Something I noticed, but didn't see in the article (unless I just missed it). In reference to the security part at the end, if the hash only included the previous block's data, and not its previous hash. If you could edit two consecutive blocks you could change, say, block 2's data and block 3's previous hash. Now everything looks fine because this doesn't change block 3's data so block 4's previous hash looks fine and everything looks legit. Seems like a greater concern than breaking the chain because it wouldn't be detected unless you compared two versions of the chain.

Check out Influence by Teremok Games on Android. Nicely done hex-based strategy game, and one of the best Android games I've played period.

Fuck yeah

Yeah, I'd had a few whiskeys when I read the article and I missed that. My mistake. Still a rough trip, and I hope he makes it. That takes some serious balls.

Yeah, a boat that short has no speed whatsoever. And being exposed to the elements for that long. No shelter from wind and rain. Sleeping like that. But if he makes it, good for him. Holy shit.

Yeah, probably not very fun. My dad is currently crossing the Atlantic in a boat that's about 42 feet, not inches. Just got an email from the Azores (he's going from Florida to Portugal) and said he's changing his route due to force 8-9 winds and 6-10 meter waves.

LinkedIn is definitely an option. If you take the time to fill out your profile and write a summary, you should have recruiters messaging you. I get messages every week asking if I'm looking. I imagine it varies by region, but it's not like I'm in SV, I live in the Tampa Bay area. Also, the quality of the recruiters can vary a lot, so maybe talk to a few different people to see what they can offer. Remember, you're a valuable commodity to them.

Off topic, but anyone else think this newish white background cutout look for the title on Bloomberg looks really terrible? The first time I saw it, I thought it was a CSS mistake that slipped through.

That's what I get for skimming. Missed that, thanks.

Unless there are two of them, that rocket slide was in Rapid City, SD. I grew up there and played on it as a kid.

Sailing to the Reefs by Bernard Moitessier

When I was a kid, a friend of mine had the Neo Geo home console from Japan. It used the same huge cartridges as the arcade machines. After school we'd sit in his basement playing Samurai Showdown on the TV, and we didn't even need any quarters. Ahh, the good ol' days.

This site has a pretty good landing page.
